| contents | In the present study, we conduct direct numerical simulations to investigate the near-wall dynamics of compressible turbulent boundary layers at the free-stream Mach number of 6 laden with heavy particles. By inspecting the instantaneous near-wall flow structures, Reynolds stresses and the impacts of particle forces on solenoidal and dilatational motions, we observed that higher particle mass loadings lead to the less meandering yet almost equally intense velocity streaks, but the weakened wall-normal velocity fluctuations induced by vortices and near-wall dilatational motions organized as travelling wave packets. The strong correlation between the particle force and dilatational velocities indicates that particles are accelerated/decelerated while travelling through these travelling wave packets composed of expansive and compressive events, and in return, leading to the weakened dilatational motions of the fluid during this process. This correlation further supports the elucidation by Yu et al. (J. Fluid. Mech., vol. 984, 2024, pp. A44) that dilatational motions are generated by the vortices that induce strong bursting events, rather than the evolving perturbations beneath the velocity streaks. Nevertheless, the variation of skin friction in the presently considered cases with moderate mass loadings, either increased or decreased by the presence of particles, is found to be primarily attributed to the solenoidal Reynolds shear stress as in incompressible turbulence, suggesting the essentially unaltered nature of wall-bounded turbulence populated by vortical and shear motions instead of gradually switching to the state dominated by dilatational motions. |
